NACEL INTERNATIONAL HIGH SCHOOLS

Mission Statement

Nacel International School is a diverse and motivated worldwide community. Our mission is to educate each student to be an enlightened citizen of the world: appreciative of different cultures, knowledgeable of foreign languages, resourceful in problem solving and socially conscious. Nacel International School works in conjunction with a university to provide a progressive program with an international perspective that encourages students to become ethical citizens responsible for leadership and service in the global community.

Program Overview

Nacel International School offers students a unique educational experience through every facet of our program. Students come to NIS to prepare for their futures while learning more about the world, and ultimately themselves.

Our curriculum provides students with quality, college preparatory academics and enrichment through the arts and physical education. Our classes are taught from a culturally relativistic perspective and take advantage of the wealth of diversity within our student body. Through our course offerings, we meet the educational needs of a wide range of students from those with limited English ability to those requiring substantial academic rigor. As an added benefit, NIS students are eligible to take Hamline University courses during their 11th and 12th grade years.

NIS teachers share a passion for working with students from around the world. Our small classes allow us to provide students with individualized instruction. The majority of our faculty members hold a Master’s degree or higher, and many have professional career experience beyond the classroom. We truly care about the well-being of our students and offer them a safe, supportive and nurturing environment in which to learn.

We seek to provide students with opportunities for the development of self-awareness, social consciousness, leadership skills and creativity through our enrichment activities, clubs and study abroad program. We also recognize the importance of providing our students with an enjoyable and memorable high school experience, and promote positive interaction through field trips, dances and other social events. Students are encouraged to take an active role in shaping the culture and climate of NIS, ensuring that it is a comfortable place to grow and learn.
